Supporters on Twitter were in line with those on Facebook, with 79 percent of the 7,468 to vote agreeing that Salah should remain as the striker at Anfield.

“Can you really say no after a game like that?” wrote@PllSKA, with the notion of momentum a popular one and rightly so following a faultless performance at Bournemouth.

Interestingly, the 4-2-3-1 seems to be growing in popularity with @Fotakis85explaining that “it’s the only way to keep 4-2-3-1 so I voted yes. As long as that is the used formation I don’t mind the striker.”

“People will be saying ‘no, play Firmino up front’, but also saying ‘start Fabinho‘,” @GenericPunditadded.

“Klopp’s basically only used Fabinho in a 4-2-3-1, and that has meant Bobby in the 10 and Salah up front. So if you’re voting for Salah not to play up front, you’re voting for Fabinho not to start.”

@AtaqShaqwrote: “Yes and Keita takes the 10, Bobby comes in from the bench.”

However, @a7madhassan1 offered another more left-field option, writing that “Salah isn’t a striker, except in counter-attacks, he is a right winger and Sturridge can play No. 9 much better.”

It is unlikely that either Sturridge or Origi start against Carlo Ancelotti’s side, though.

And after his masterclass to fire Liverpool to the top of the Premier League, it would be hard to argue against Salah keeping his place up front on Tuesday.
